I’m trying to renew my cert but run into a problem.
My domain is:
www.bellessa.be
I ran this command:
sudo certbot renew --dry-run
It produced this output:

To fix these errors, please make sure that your domain name was
entered correctly and the DNS A record(s) for that domain

your computer has a publicly routable IP address and that no
firewalls are preventing the server from communicating with the
client. If you're using the webroot plugin, you should also verify
that you are serving files from the webroot path you provided.

Certbot doesn’t know how to automatically configure the web server on this system. However, it can still get a certificate for you. Please run “certbot certonly” to do so. You’ll need to manually configure your web server to use the resulting certificate.
